Loved the place, service impeccable; staff friendly, helpful. Loved the fact that bicycles were available but some improvement can be made on the bikes though. We had a wonderful time and will go back.

Dear AnnJaen,

Another lovely review from our bike-loving guests. We are absolutely delighted to hear that you loved Banyan Tree Phuket – the villa you stayed in, the world-class service you received from our friendly team and the bikes that gave you so much freedom to enjoy the resort vicinity. We have a full time bike mechanic and he has been made aware of the importance of maintaining the bikes.

Thank you once again for your candid and sincere feedback, we look forward to seeing you soon,

Cheers,

Sriram KailasamGeneral Manager

Stayed three nights in the two bedroom pool villa with a toddler.The rooms have minimalist decor hence not too overwhelming and the pool was lovely. The staff is warm and everyone greets you all the time and hospitality is world class.The food was the best thai I have ever had and the kids menu is full of exciting kiddie delicacies.The only drawback would be the location and distance from patong.However I was looking for such quiet and serene surroundings and did not mind the distance. A free shuttle service takes you anywhere in laguna and we dined at other properties like Angsana.However if u like the patong nightlife then do not stay at the banyan tree.I was with family and hence loved the relaxing and calming atmosphere of banyan tree.

Dear hanafisaima,

Warm greetings from Banyan Tree Phuket. My team and I thank you for a brief but glowing review.

I suggest a longer stay next time to allow you enough time to explore the other attractions of downtown Phuket including the Sino-Portuguese architecture, quaint Cafés, art and curios shops area to counter the hustle and bustle of Patong! Most importantly you will find peace and tranquility at Banyan Tree Phuket. Hope you have received the fabulous offer for return guests!!

Warm regards,

An absolute delight of a property if you are looking for a relaxed secluded time away with your family. The villas are just amazing - spacious, great pools, lovely lawn and sala. Food is excellent. The property is great for nice long walks and the lagoon, bridges and walkways are lovely. Lovely staff who are very helpful. Good for just a romantic getaway and for time with the family. The private beach is also really clean and linked well to the property. Have no complaints and would highly recommend a stay here.

Room Tip: We stayed in a pool villa and it was lovely.

This is our third visit as a family, having had a gap of around 3 or 4 years between each visit. We had been worried that it might have become too large or too tired, but we were delighted that there were no such issues. A fabulous place, we stayed at a deluxe double pool villa with our daughters aged 11 and 14. They adore the place, especially the freedom of the private pool. We can each take a dip whenever we fancied and there was enough space in the villa for us each to chill in our own corner. The widespread use of bikes around the resort went down well with the whole family. Fun and practical. Food and service was excellent as always. This is probably not your uber cool resort but it is still a beautiful, tranquil, fabulous place which we think is very good value for money.

Dear SJW1997,

Thank you very much for choosing DoublePool Villas by Banyan Tree and sharing with us your really great feedback about your third family stay. Thank you for highlighting that you found your Deluxe Double Pool Villa up to your and your family’s high expectations and very good value for money. Also glad that all of you the well designed wide spaces and facilities. I agree that one of the best ways to get around the resort at your own convenience, apart from the buggy service, is the use of bicycles.

Dear SJW1997, thank you for the great review and we are looking forward to welcoming you back once more to enjoy more Banyan Tree moments at your “Sanctuary for the Senses”.

Best regards,

Dear MO091970,

Thank you very much indeed for sharing your experience with us. I am sorry to hear that we could not give you a better stay but, your feedback has been taking note of. We spend a lot of time and resources to maintain our resort in top condition. Our diligent annual Villa maintenance program is the key to keeping these individual homes in best condition.

We are in the process of fixing the sandwash area and smoothing the edges. I am so sorry to hear about what happened to your children. I sincerely hope they are doing well. In terms of mosquito eradication, being in the tropics, we take several preventive measures to reduce them, These include cold fogging, the use of plugged in electrical repellants in villa, Eucalyptus oil creams etc. Apart from this, our housekeeping ensures that they keep doors and windows closed during cleaning and turndowns.

We are only about 25 minutes by local taxi from Phuket town or about 40 minutes from Patong. We also have a shuttle van in the morning and afternoon for our guests to visit these locations. I do hope you were aware of this facility.

Best wishes, Sriram KailasamGeneral Manager

Our second trip to the Banyan Tree in Phuket did not disappoint. The staff are friendly and wonderful at all times. The setting is brilliant and the facilities are fabulous. We hear it is about to get a revamp so will be even better then. I would highly recommend the 2 bedroom pool villas. Perfect for us! We love the buggies that are there at your service 24 hours. It was also fun riding our bikes around the stunning frangapani lined laneways! Love it!

Room Tip: The most amazing big king bedroom and bed!
Dining can be costly within so also venture to the beach...

Really hard not to give this 5 stars as you feel like you are being treated like royalty.. from the moment you arrive, the staff are fantastic, even helping us to track down the sunglasses our daughter left on the minibus. The facilities are what you'd expect for the price - fantastic pool, incredible food, luxurious rooms and an amazing attention to detail everywhere. This was a real step up for us in terms of hotels (a treat at the end of a 2 week trip) and although we loved it, it's probably not something we'd do for more than a couple of days as (for us) it's almost too much ... but if you like the best things in life all the time, then this is definitely for you.
